went to austin and checked out some guitar stores. played a few martins and taylors. first time to hold some "real" guitars. dang, makes me realize how crumby my guitar is and how much i NEED an awesome one. i played them all "upside down" cuz im a lefty but i could still hear the difference. they only lefties i could find were fenders, under 300 bucks. not bad but i am looking for something special. i also strummed on a 12 stringer a time or two. awesome. anywho, im just sharing and im spent.

lol. yeah, i have some earphones but its way too risky during class. i just look at guitars for sale all during my next class. probably the most boring class i will ever take. w/o a computer, well...i dont wanna think about not having a computer in this class. peace brotha. happy not paying attention to you.

Let's not try to pass off your opinion as fact... there are a great number of people who strongly disagree with you. Strongly. (including me.)
